About this analysis

The Evening Standard reports a £12 billion investment by RWE and KKR in two offshore wind farms off Norfolk, welcomed by Prime Minister Andy Burnham before the Cop31 summit. It attributes the capacity, homes and jobs figures to the company and the Government, and it keeps the claims about bills inside quotations. Nothing in it misleads the reader.

What it gets right

  • “RWE said the Vanguard projects represent one of the UK’s largest offshore wind developments”

    The Standard attributes the size and homes-supplied figures to the developer rather than stating them as fact in its own voice.

  • “The Government said the investment would support more than 2,400 jobs”

    The jobs estimate is clearly sourced to the Government, so the reader knows it is an official projection.

  • “The financing includes £1 billion from the state-owned National Wealth Fund.”

    The article tells the reader plainly that part of the money is public, not only private investment.
